Abstract

A drought event is characterized by duration, severity and affected area. In general, after calculating a drought index using hydro-meteorological time series at a station, a drought event is defined based on the run theory to identify the beginning and end time. However, this one-dimensional analysis has limitations for analyzing the spatio-temporal occurrence characteristics and movement paths of drought. Therefore, this study is to define a three-dimensional drought event using a simple clustering algorithm and to develop a drought map that can be used to understand the drought severity according to the spatio-temporal expansion of drought. As a result, compared with the two-dimensional monitoring information to show spatial distribution of drought index, a proposed drought map is able to show three-dimensional drought characteristics inclusing drought duration, spatial cumulative severity, and centroid of drought. The analysis of drought map indicated that there was a drought event which had the affected area less than 10 % while on occations while there were 11 drought events (44 %) which had the affected area more a than 90 % of the total area. This means that it is important to understand the relationship between spatial variation of drought affected area and severity corresponding to various drought durations. The development of drought map based on three-dimensional drought analysis is useful to analyze the spatio-temporal occurrence characteristics and propagation patterns of regional drought which can be utilized in developing mitigation measures for future extreme droughts.

가뭄사상은 지속기간, 심도, 피해면적 등으로 특성화 할 수 있다. 일반적으로 가뭄사상은 관측소별로 구축된 시계열 자료를 이용하여 가뭄지수를 산정한 후, 연속이론에 따라 가뭄의 시작과 종료 시점을 파악하여 정의된다. 하지만 이와 같은 1차원적 분석방법은 가뭄의 시공간적인 발생특성 및 이동경로를 분석하는 데에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 단순 클러스터링 알고리즘을 활용하여 3차원(경도, 위도, 시간)적 가뭄사상을 정의하고, 가뭄의 시공간적 확장에 따른 가뭄상황을 파악할 수 있는 가뭄지도를 개발하였다. 이러한 가뭄지도는 가뭄지수를 공간적으로 표출하는 2차원적 가뭄 모니터링 정보와 비교하여 3차원적 가뭄사상에 대한 특성(지속기간, 공간적 누적심도, 가뭄의 중심)을 모두 표출하는 것이다. 그 결과 가뭄 지속기간 내 가뭄 발생면적이 최소 10 % 미만인 국소면적인 경우도 있는 반면, 최대 90 % 이상으로 확장되는 비율도 44%(25개 사상 중 11개 사상)로 확인되었다. 이는 3차원적으로 해석한 다양한 가뭄 지속기간 변화에 따른 공간적인 가뭄의 면적 변화와 심도(강도) 변화에 대한 관계는 매우 중요하다는 것을 재확인 하는 것이다. 3차원 시공간적 가뭄분석을 통한 가뭄지도 개발을 위한 연구는 미래 극한가뭄 대응 방안을 마련함에 있어서는 지역적 가뭄의 시공간적 발생특성 및 패턴을 해석하는 데 활용가능성이 있을 것으로 기대된다.
